hey i was driving normally today and my power locks worked fine, but then i got to my house and they just kind of stopped working. the lock on the inside of the car works fine and moves freely. i can also lock/unlock the door with the key, and the inside lock moves accordingly. also, when i press the button to lock it, you can hear the relay or whatever clicking inside the dash. however, when i press the button down to lock the doors, nothing happens, no clicking or anything. any ideas? thanks!
 
I had something similar happen....check the fuse panel inside the car. The 10A fuse is probably busted...replace and see what happens.
 
something similar to this has happened to me too in my old car, as well as a couple friends of mine. In my case, the locks will work fine some times, yet other times they dont work at all as mentioned above. The changes happen randomly sometimes it works for days, then nothing for a few days. THen back again. Spooky

Anyone know what could be causing this problem?
 
its most likely a bad ground on one of the wires...the more guages and other stuff you add..the more likely one will introduce an electrical problem.
